Mobile Web Server Extensions: My Mobile Site widgets updated

My Mobile Site widgets has been just updated to version 1.1. It has the same architecture as 1.0 enhanced with a little bit better protocol (JSON-RPC). We corrected and enhanced the existing widgets and added some more features like Calendar and MMS sending. We show also information about other mymobilesite.net users (Free/Busy information). This feature demonstrates the potential in the remote access provided by the Mobile Web Server.

New features and changes:

  1. Single Login, UI allignements, Windows installer for widgets,
  2. JSON-RPC between phone and PC
  3. Enhanced access rights handling
  4. New Calendar widget with Free/busy information
  5. SMS widget: New SMS information, delete SMS, drag and drop support
  6. Picture widget: Save, Rotate, Send image as MMS
  7. Small fixes in Call widget

Download:

Phone:

1. Download the Mobile Web Server software and sign up for a domain name for your mobile here.

2. Install MyMobileSite_widgets.sis (.SIS, 34 KB) to the same location (Phone or Memory Card) as Mobile Web Server

3. Ensure that you have started your mobile web server (Options | Start server) and login with your mymobilesite.net user name and password.

4. We recommend setting the Access point to fixed value in the Mobile Web Server Settings.

5. To add access rights to your free/busy information from the widgets of other users select Users and add new user or activate the guest account. Guest account activation goes in the following way: Click on the Guest Account in the user list and then click activate and set the username and password. To add new user select Users and click Options | Add new user. The battery, signal and the free/busy information is visible to all widgets which log in with any of these usernames and passwords. (All other informations are visible only with user accounts in the admin group.)

1. Download and install Yahoo! Widget Engine from here.
